CC-8957 also know as Raz , commanded the 23rd legion of the 54th eclipse corps during the clone wars. Raz and his men saw their first action during the battle of Geonosis, but made name for themselves during the battle of Jabiim. There the Republic suffered great losses and were forced to retreat. In order for the retreat to be successful Raz and small group of clones had to hold out against great odds and a large army of droids. With his and his men's valiant effort the separatists were held off long enough to save the lives of thousands of clones. Here is my vignette depicting the makeshift fort backed up to a cliff made my Raz and his men to hold off wave after wave of battle droids. no clonescommander Raz phase 1

Just a curiousity of mine; why is there flame? I understand the searing properties of laserblasts but under sufficient rainfall, a quality of which Jabiim is at least somewhat well known for, the ability to create flame through contact with a dry substance is significantly diminished.

No, the Battle of Jabiim was a real battle in the early Clone Wars.[/quote]

Indeed it was here is a link to the wookiepedia article ( Battle of Jabiim ), but these entire scene is a made up part of the back story of my commander, and I plan on continuing his story through more vignettes Smile

The flames were not meant to be lasting flames (of course it is raining... its Jabiim ) It is more of a that it is a middle of an attack at that is the brief sparks and flames from constant blaster fire. Also in the back group of flames i was thinking of it as kind of the after math of a thermal detonator that injured the clone seen lying to the left.
